I have the SM N950N 256gb.
I cant find the netflix app on the play store neither install it through the play store when going on the computer.
NETFLIX is supported in Israel (where i live) and i had it on both my galaxy s4 and my oneplus 3t.

What could possibly be the reason?

Thanks

Are you rooted? If so, that is the problem. Netflix no longer allows their app to be installed on a rooted phone.

There is however a workaround. Search for it using "install Netflix on rooted phone".
Have you tried , just throwing out ideas... A Netflix apk from perhaps a lower revision build of the Netflix app?

Ok i installed an apk. It works great. Everything is fine as expected. It just bums me out that i have to go around and get an apk. Besides the fact it feels less secure than using the play store. Its also not gonna get any updates which is also annoying.

I just hoped i could fix it without having to go around

Wish I could have helped you more, I don't really use Netflix on phone at all. Hopefully someone will chime in eventually.

Netflix site worked for me. They provided apk.

I had issues with Samsung pay saying my phone was not compatible after a factory reset. Samsung told me to get phone warrantied. I knew it was software issue not hardware. I agree I hate trusting downloading apk off the web. But I had to since Google play store apk was the problem the play store version was compatible with my phone
